To Reduce Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to reduce your speed
while using cruise control:
1. Push in the button at the end of the
lever
until you reach the lower speed
you want, then release it.
2. To slow down in very small amounts,
push the button for less than half a
second. Each time you do this, you’ll
go
1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.
Passing Another Vehicle While Using
Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to increase your
speed. When you take your foot off the
pedal, your vehicle
will slow down to the
Cruise Control speed you set earlier.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well your Cruise Control will work
on hills depends upon your speed, load,
and the steepness
of the hills. When going
up steep hills, you may have
to step on
the accelerator pedal to maintain your
speed. When going downhill, you may
have to brake or shift
to a lower gear to
keep your speed down. Of course,
applying the brake takes you out of
Cruise Control. Many drivers find this
to
be too much trouble and don’t use Cruise
Control on steep hills.

Operation of Lights
Although your vehicle's lighting system
(headlights, parking lights,
fog lamps,
side marker lights and taillights) meet all
applicable federal lighting requirements,
certain states and provinces may apply
their own lighting regulations that may
require special attention before you
operate these lights. For example, some
jurisdictions may require that
you operate
your lower beam lights with fog lamps at
all times, or that headlights be turned on
whenever you must use your windshield
wipers.
In addition, most jurisdictions
prohibit driving solely with parking
lights, especially at dawn or dusk. It is
recommended that you check with your
own state or provincial highway authority
for applicable lighting regulations.

Fuel Gage
... 100
Your fuel page shows about how much
fuel
is in your tank. The fuel gage works
only when the ignition switch is
in the
Run position. When the gage pointer first
indicates
E, you still have a little fuel left
(about one to two gallons),
but you need
to get more right away. Here
are four concerns some owners
have had about the fuel gage.
All these
e
situations are normal and do not indicate
that anything
is wrong with the fuel gage.
e
0
0
At the gas station, the gas pump shuts
off before the gage reads
F.
It takes more (or less) gas to fill up
than the gage reads. For example, the
gage reads
1/2 full, but it took more
(or
less) than half of the tank's
capacity
to fill it.
The gage moves a little when you
turn, stop or speed up.
When you
turn the engine off, the
c gage doesn't go back to E.
Brake System Warning Light
Your Chevrolet's hydraulic brake system
is divided into two parts. If one part isn't
working, the other part can still work and
stop you. For good braking, though, you
need both parts working well.
If the warning light goes on, there could
be a brake problem. Have your brake
system inspected right away.
This light should come on as you start the
vehicle.
If it doesn't come on then, have it
fixed so it will be ready to warn you if
there's a problem.
